redone, Redone, REDONE! Yay, I'm working on the new chapter. And don't think I'm doing this revising just to get more readers. I'm doing this so I can continue the story, which I have been unable to do.

Starfire rolled over in bed and looked at her clock. It read 9:30am. "Time for my morning meal," she said, yawning. Slowly, still shaking sleep off, she got up and went to the bathroom to shower. After she had stripped her clothing off, she stepped into the stream of warm water and sighed with pleasure. She began the usual routine for her shower, lathering her hair with shampoo. Suddenly she felt a strange spark of pain in her side, but she didn't think much about it. After a few minutes the pain came back and stayed this time, quickly growing until she was clutching her sides and gasping. Falling to her knees, she grimaces as sharp pain went through her legs, too. She let out a sharp gasp as the pain rapidly increased again, before she passed out on the shower floor, the water running across her body.
There she lay for a long while, until her eye lids began to twitch. Very suddenly, they shot open. They were bright yellow and glowing, staring ahead but not seeing anything. Again they drifted closed and Starfire slowly came back to consciousness.

Robin was lounging on the couch, flipping through channels. No one else had woken up yet, or at least hadn't come out of their rooms yet. He heard the door open and looked back to see Starfire standing there. She looked troubled as she rubbed her head.
"Hey Star, are you ok?" he asked.
She looked at him and smiled. "Yes Robin, I am fine. Thank you for asking," She said cheerfully, quickly casting away her troubled look.
"Well, ok. Would you like to watch TV with me or something?" He asked.
"Sure Robin, that would be wonderful," she said happily as she sat down beside him. He continued to flip through channels until he decided on a Stand up comedian show. After a few minutes he was laughing at the jokes the stand up was telling. Something seemed amiss, and after a few moments he realized that Starfire wasn't laughing. He looked over and she had the same troubled look on her face again.
"Starfire?" he asked, concerned, "Are you sure you're ok?"
"Oh yes, I'm fine," she replied.
"Ok," he said, not sure what was going on. He heard the door open and saw Raven walk in, followed by Beast Boy and Cyborg, who were having another argument about tofu.
"I'm telling you man, that stuff tastes like cardboard, its not healthy." Cyborg stated.
"Dude! I can't eat meat! It'd be like eating myself!"
"C'mon, it can't be that bad," Cyborg replied.
"Why do you guys always argue," Raven said, annoyed.
They all looked at the screen as the alarm went off. Robin ran to the monitor to see what was happening. "Looks like Mumbo got into a jewelry store," he stated, "Let's go team."
They all ran out the door except Starfire, was once again rubbing her head.
"Starfire! Are you coming?" Robin asked. She shook her head and stood up.
"Oh yes, I will come," she said.

When they got to the bank Mumbo was greedily shoving expensive jewel into a bag.
"Mumbo, you're under arrest for robbery," Robin said.
"You'll have to catch me first," he said as he ran out the door giggling.
"Starfire, get him," Robin yelled to her, because she was the closest to the door. She flew after Mumbo, who was running down the street, making fire hydrants turn into pigeons and mail boxes spit their contents at passersby.
She fired a starbolt at him and knocked him to the ground. The bag of jewels flew out of his hand and diamonds scattered all over the pavement. He yelped and started hurriedly shoving handfuls back into the bag. Starfire saw him scrambling across the ground and smiled. She hit him with another starbolt, which made him go sprawling across the ground. She smiled wider and continued to launch starbolt at him. She continued her assault until he was curled up whimpering on the sidewalk, desperately trying to crawl away. Robin and the others had caught up with her at this point.
"STARFIRE! STOP!" Robin yelled at her. He saw a cruel smirk on her face and stopped dead in his tracks. She looked exactly like she did in his dream. It sent shivers down his spine.
Starfire closed her eyes and shook her head; the cruel look disappeared from her face. She opened her eyes and looked wide eyed around. She landed and looked horrified.
"Starfire! What is wrong with you today?" Robin asked as a police arrived and carried Mumbo away, whimpering and crying. Starfire looked at him with a blank expression on her face.
"I don't know, Robin! I don't know" she said, near tears.

Yay, this is really helping me to think up new ideas for chapters (or is it? You decide!). Anyway, I hope that you like it. Next one coming up ASAP
